2001 Ford F-250 SD complaints

THE SPARE TIRE HOIST ON OUR 2001 FORD F250 IS JAMMED AND WILL NOT PICK UP THE SPARE TIRE. THERE IS NO SAFE, SUITABLE PLACE TO STORE THE SPARE TIRE. LEAVING IT ALONG THE ROAD WAS NOT AN OPTION AND THERE WAS NO ROOM BEHIND THE FRONT SEAT. LEAVING IT IN THE TRUCK BED WHERE IT IS SUBJECT TO THEFT ISN'T A VIABLE OPTION. FORD WAS NOTIFIED, BUT SAID THAT THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED AND THAT THEY WILL NOT REPAIR THE HOIST. IN THE MEANTIME WE HAVE AN 80LB. TIRE AND NO SAFE PLACE TO KEEP IT. *JB

WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES VEHICLE VIBRATED. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. DEALER DETERMINED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER ROTOR BROKE. ALSO, REAR BRAKES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *AK

2001 F250 CREW CAB, 4X4, AUTO TRANSMISSION. TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED AT 36,200 MILES. DEALER WILL NOT FIX UNDER WARRANTY. WAS TOLD THAT A "DIRECT 1-WAY GEAR BROKE, AND NOW THERE IS METAL INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION". I BELIEVE THAT FORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND REFUSES TO STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCT. *LA

I HAVE A 2001 FORD F250 WITH THE 7.3 L ENGINE. THE PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICAL IS THAT THE POWER STEERING IS UNRELIABLE. IT WORKS GREAT 99% BUT OCCASIONALLY IT JUST GOES DEAD. IT SEEMS THAT USING THE BRAKES AND TRYING TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL WILL CAUSE THE STEERING TO GO DEAD SUCH AS IN A PARKING LOT WHERE YOU ARE TRYING TO TURN THE WHEEL AND USE THE BRAKES TO STOP THE CAR. THE OTHER DAY I WAS GOING UP AN ON RAMP WITH A TURN AT THE TOP AND HAD NO STEERING TO TURN THE TRUCK. I ALMOST HAD A WRECK. THE DEALERSHIP SEEMS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM... THE FELLAS ON THE FORD TRUCK WEB SITE HAVE HAD THEIR PROBLEMS AS WELL. IT SEEMS LIKE THIS MIGHT BE AN ISSUE FOR A POSSIBLE RECALL.*AK

THE TRUCK WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONTAL COLLISION WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 40-45 MPH. THE TRUCK SUSTAINED SEVERE FRONT END DAMAGE. THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG FAILED TO DEPLOY UPON IMPACT. AS A RESULT THE DRIVER SUSTAINED INJURIES TO HIS NECK AND BACK WHEN HE HIT THE STEERING WHEEL. *JB *SC *JB

TIRE SIDE WALLS COMING APART. *JB

HAD TWO LT 265 75R16 (C RATED) GOODYEAR WRANGLER AT/S REPLACED ON MY F 250 DIESEL CREW CAB 4X4 LONG BED ON THE REAR BECAUSE THESE WERE THE WRONG LOAD RATING STATED IN FORD MAINTENANCE BOOK. THESE WERE REPLACED WITH THE SAME TIRE EXCEPT THEY ARE NOW E RATED. ONCE ON THE FREEWAY AND BEGAN LANE CHANGES OR LONG SWEEPING TURNS I FELT I HAD A FLAT. I WAS LOSING CONTROL OF THE TRUCK. I IMMEDIATELY SLOWED DOWN AND LOOKED FOR A PLACE TO TURN OFF ONCE OFF THE OVER PASS. I INSPECTED THE TIRES AND THERE DID NOT APPEAR TO BE ANYTHING WRONG WITH THEM. THE FOLLOWING DAY I WENT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT REPLACED THE TIRE AND A MECHANIC OF THEIRS TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE. HE TOO FELT THE TRUCK LOSE ITS STEERABILTY. WE WENT BACK TO THE SHOP AND HE VISUALY INSPECTED THE TIRES FOR PRESSURE, SECURITY(LUG NUTS) ETC. AND DISCUSSED IT WITH ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL(S). IT WAS HIS/THEIR OPPINION THAT I MAY NEED TO REPLACE THE FRONT TIRE BECAUSE THEY MAY NOT BE GRIPPING AS WELL AS THE REAR AND TAHT IT WHAT I AM FEELING AND I MAY ALSO NEED AN ALIGNMENT. I AGREED I WOULD HAVE THESE THINGS DONE. HOWEVER, IF THIS DOES NOT RESOLVE IT THEY WILL NOT REIMBURSE ME FOR THE ADDED EXPENSE" IT'S JUST A STARTING POINT". I HAVE DISCUSSED THIS WITH A FEW MECHANICS AND TIRE SPECIALIST HAD THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THIS. I WENT ON LINE TO RESEARCH THE PROBLEM AND FOUND ONE OTHER INDIVIDUAL WITH A VERY SIMIALAR PROBLEM ON EPINIONS.COM BRIANPETERS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THIS PROBLEM. I DO KNOW THAT IT HAP

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, TORQUE-CONVERTER. I HAVE A 2001 FORD F-250 SUPER DUDY PICK-UP TRUCK, SINCE 9 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASED I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS REGARDING MY TRANSMISSION & DRIVE SHAFT (ALREADY REPLACED IT WHILE UNDER WARRENTY), WITH THE TRANSMISSION WE HAD A PROBLEM DOWN SHIFTING, EVEY TIME WE TOOK IT IN THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM ( FORD DEALER, THEY SAID THERES NOTHING THEY CAN DO), IT HAS 90% OF HIGHWAY MILES ON IT & 10% TOWN MILES. IT IS NOW 2004 IT HAS 61000 MILES & THE TORQUE-CONVERTER IS SLIPING & SHUTTERING, NOT ALOWING THE FLUID TO PASS THROUGH CORRECTLY & THE TRANSMISSION NOW HAS TO BE REBUILT, BECAUSE FORD DEALER SAID THE COULDN'T FIND NOTHING WRONG, SO WE TOOK IT FOR A SECOND OPINION & THEY FOUND SOMETHING, BUT WHILE UNDER WARRENTY THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT !!!!!!! GO FIGURE, I GUESS THATS HOW THEY MAKE THERE MONEY .*AK

PREMATURE FAILURE OF BOTH UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS AND BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT BALL JOINTS. FAILURE OCCURRED AT 50,000 MILES.*AK

FRONT DRIVERS SIDE WHEEL BEARINGS WENT OUT AND ALMOST CAUSED A WRECK.I HAVE SPOKEN WITH MANY PEOPLE ON THIS SUBJECT AND WITH A LOT OF RESEARCH,I HAVE FOUND THAT THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE HUB ASS. USED IN FORDS F SEIRIES TRUCKS MAY BE DEFECTIVE.THE HUB CANNOT BE SERVICED NOR THE BEARINGS INSIDE,IT IS A SEALED UNIT THAT COST AROUND 400 DOLLARS EVERY TIME I REPLACE IT.IF THIS BEARING GOES OUT WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT MAY CAUSE A WRECK BY ALLOWING AN INCH OR SO OF PLAY IN THE TIRE IT SELF OR BY LOCKING UP RESULTING IN SKID TYPE ACCIDENT.I THINK THAT THIS IS AN ABNORMAL AMOUNT OF FAILURE FOR SIXTY-THOUSAND MILES AND 2 YEARS.*AK

2001 FORD F250 SUPERDUTY UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINT FAILURE W/78985 MILES ON VEHICLE. ONE UPPER WAS WORN TO ALLOW AN INCH OF MOVE IN WHEEL. FORD HAS A PROBLEM WITH PREMATURE BALL JOINT WEAR AS I HAVE THIS VEHICLE WITH THE PROBLEM, HAD A MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS BALL JOINTS FAILED WITH 40000 MILES OR LESS. F250 DIAGNOSED AT FRONT END ALIGNMENT FACILITY THEY SAID 70000 MILES IS GOOD ON FORD BALL JOINTS AS THEY REPLACE A LOT OF THEM IN 40000 AND 50000 MILES. FORD HAS DETERMINED THIS A WEAR AREA AND WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM. I CONTEND THIS NOT FAIL UNTIL WELL ABOVE 100000 MILES. IT IS NOT A TIRE, BRAKE PADS, FILTERS, OR BELTS. *AK

ENGINE MIS-FIRES AND LOSES POWER WHEN ACCELERATING FROM STOP/ GOING UP HILLS, ETC. THIS PROBLEM STARTED, ON AN INTERMITTENT BASIS, AT AN ODOMETER READING OF ONLY 9,000 MILES. VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALER FOUR TIMES OVER 2 YEARS TO REMEDY - - COULD NOT DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR. SUDDENLY BECAME MUCH WORSE AT 48,000 MILES. TWO IGNITION COILS FOUND FAULTY AND REPLACED. NOW SEEING THE SAME PROBLEM AT 51,000 MILES. POTENTIAL SAFETY CONCERN, DUE TO HESITATION/ LACK OF POWER WHEN TURNING LEFT ACROSS TRAFFIC OR CROSSING TRAFFIC LANES. DEALER AND REGIONAL FORD REP. REFUSE TO COVER REPAIRS, EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM WAS IDENTIFIED UNDER WARRANTY, BUT NOT FOUND AND FIXED UNTIL OUT OF WARRANTY.*AK

SEVERE SPLITTING OF TIRE RUNNING AROUND TIRE INBETWEEN TREAD. *AK

MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE A FORD F-250 V10 2001. AT 62000 MILES, THE ENGINE BEGAN TO MAKE AN INCREDIBLE NOISE IN THE LOWER END. WE IMMEDIATELY WENT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND WERE TOLD THAT WE NEED TO REPLACE THE LONG BLOCK. SINCE WE ARE 12000 MILES OVER WARRANTY, WE WOULD NEED TO COME UP WITH $5700 PLUS LABOR. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS SITES WHERE PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THEIR V10 AND FORD WILL REPLACE THE ENTIRE ENGINE, IF UNDER WARRANTY. FORD RECALLED AND REPLACED OUR TRANSMISSION LAST YEAR, BUT IT DID NOT HELP WITH THE ENGINE. PLEASE HELP US, I KNOW 10 OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, WE ARE ALL FRUSTRATED AND UNABLE TO DRIVE OUR VEHICLES. *LA

I BOUGHT MY FORD F250 IN JUNE 2003, I WAS DRIVING 70 MPH THROUGH THE DESERT IN CALIFORNIA WITH MY DAUGHTER, DAD, AND MOM WHEN THE TRUCK JERKED HARD TO THE LEFT; I WAS ABLE TO KEEP IT ON THE HIGHWAY BY INCHES. AFTER CLEANING OUT MY PANTS, WE GOT OUT TO SEE THAT THE TREAD HAD COME COMPLETELY OFF AND THE TIRE WAS STILL INFLATED. I TOOK IT IN TO A FIRESTONE DEALER WHO SAID THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO TO HELP ME. I HAVE REPLACED THE TWO FRONT TIRES($400) AND WOULD LIKE TO REPLACE THE BACK TWO--I HAVE NO FAITH IN FIRESTONE TIRES AFTER THIS. WILL SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE THE IDIOTS MAKING THESE TIRES ARE HELD RESPONSIBLE. *JB

ENGINE HAS BEGUN TO IDLE AT VERY LOW RPM'S, TO THE POINT WHERE IT HAS TO BE DRIVEN WITH BRAKE AND GAS PEDAL BOTH BEING DEPRESSED TO STOP OR SLOWING DOWN. THE RPM'S HAVE DROPPED TO 400 AT IDLE SPEED. THE VEHICLE WORKS PERFECTLY FINE AT 600 AND ABOVE WITHOUT MISSING OR HESITATION, BUT WHEN COMING TO A STOP OR SLOWING DOWN, AND THE RPM'S DROP BELOW 600, THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF. THE PROBLEM OR POTENTIAL HAZARD IS THAT THE POWER STEERING DISABLES AND BRAKES ARE VERY HARD AND THIS BEING A VERY BIG AND HEAVY TRUCK, IT TURNS INTO A MOVING HEADACHE. MY VEHICLE IS A 2001 F-250 SUPER DUTY, CREW CAB, LONG WHEELBASE, V-10. IT CURRENTLY HAS 48,000 MILES ON IT. THE PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED AT ABOUT 38,000 MILES AT WOULD DO IT ON OCCASION, BUT SINCE ACHIEVING 43,000 MILE MARK, IT APPEARS TO BE HAPPENING WITH MORE FREQUENCY. *PH

SERVICE LIGHT COMES ON INDICATING A FAILURE IN THE ENGINE WHEN A LOAD IS BEING PULLED BY THE TRUCK. MANUFACTURER IS AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT DOSEN'T HAVE A SOLUTION AT THIS TIME. *AK

CONSUMER CALLED COMPLAINING ABOUT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 60 TO 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY VEHICLE STALLED, AND CONSUMER WAS NOT ABLE TO CONTROL THE SPEED. MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED, AND STATED THAT HE NEEDED TO CONTACT A DEALER TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. DEALER WAS CONTACTED, AND STATED THAT TRANSMISSION WAS FRIED AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. *AK

FIRESTONE TIRE 265/75 16, TREAD PEELED OFF THE TIRE. CAUSED SEVERE DAMAGE TO FRONT DRIVER SIDE OF TRUCK. BROKE WIRES LOOSE INCLUDING ANTILOCK BRAKE WIRE. SWERVED DANGEROUSLY TO THE LEFT ACROSS 3 LANES, LUCKILY WAS ABLE TO GET THE TRUCK BACK UNDER CONTROL. THE TIRE AND THE 4 OTHERS CAME WITH THE VEHICLE, 2001 F250SD CREW CAB, 56,000 MILES. LAST WEEK OUR OTHER TRUCK, 1998 F150 WITH WILDERNESS HT TIRES HAD A TREAD SEPARATE AND 3WEEKS PRIOR TO THAT THE STEEL BELTS WERE BROKE IN ANOTHER TIRE. THIS TRUCK HAS 28,000 MILES. I THINK SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE WITH FIRESTONE TIRES, MAYBE THEY NEED TO SHUT DOWN OR QUIT MAKING TIRES FOR SUV'S AND TRUCKS.*AK

I HAVE A 2001 FORD F-250 DIESEL WITH A 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE HYDRAULIC CLUTCH SYSTEM HAS WENT OUT 3 TIMES IN LESS THAN A YEAR. THIS PAST TIME THE TRUCK STARTED PULLING OUT INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC ON IT'S OWN WHILE THE CLUTCH PEDAL WAS PRESSED TO THE FLOOR. I HAD MY 17 MONTH DAUGHTER WITH ME AND WE WERE ALMOST HIT! THIS IS AN UNSAFE SYSTEM AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT IT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INJURED OR EVEN KILLED!!*AK

POWER STEERING FAILURE OF SOME SORT HAS CAUSED POWER ASSIST TO BE APPLIED AT FULL CAPACITY AT ALL TIMES. THERE IS NO STEERING FEEL WHATSOEVER, AND THERE IS NO SELF-CENTERING OF THE STEERING. AN EXTREME LEVEL OF ATTENTION TO CAREFUL STEERING IS REQUIRED TO OPERATE THE TRUCK DUE TO THE SLIGHTEST TOUCH OF THE STEERING WHEEL BECOMING AN EXTREME RESPONSE BY FRONT WHEELS. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED, WITH BRAKES APPLIED, THE STEERING WHEEL CAN EAISLY BE SPUN FROM LOCK TO LOCK BY JUST PUSHING ON THE WHEEL SLIGHTLY - IT WILL CONTINUE TO TURN UNTOUCHED. *AK

CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER FAILURE RESULTING IN VEHICLE CLUTCH/TRANSMISSION BEING ENGAGED AT ALL TIMES AND LURCHING FORWARD DESPITE BREAKING. WHEN CLUTCH WAS PUSHED IN IT STAYED ON THE FLOOR AND KEPT THE TRANSMISSION ENGAGED. *AK

2001 F250 CREW CAB 4 X 4 AUTO TRANSMISSION. TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 49,000 MILES. DRIVING ALONG AT 45 TO 50 MILES AN HOUR AND TRANSMISSION LOSES 2ND AND THROWS/SNAPS PASSENGERS FORWARD. VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN OFF ROAD, ALL MILES ARE HIGHWAY. VEHICLE HAS NOT PULLED ANYTHING. FORD SAID THEY COULD NOT REPAIR ONLY REPLACE TRANSMISSION WITH A REBUILT TRANSMISSION FOR $3100. I HAD A LOCAL TRANSMISSION REPAIR SHOP MAKE REPAIRS FOR $2200. THEY WERE TOLD BY FORD WHEN ORDERING PARTS THAT THE ONE-WAY CLUTCH THAT FAILED WAS A NEW DESIGN IN 1998. PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE SINCE FORD HAD SINCE GONE BACK TO PRE 1998 DESIGN. THIS IS CLEARLY A "LATENT DEFECT" THAT FORD IS/HAS BEEN AWARD OF. I AM ASKING FORD TO STAND FOR THE COST OF REPAIRS OR WILL REFER TO COUNSEL TO FILE A DECEPTIVE TRADE PRACTICE CLAIM AGAINST THEM.*AK

TREAD SEPARATION ON A FIRESTONE LT 265/75R TIRE ON A 2001 FORD F250. *NLM

2001 YEAR MODEL FORD F250. DRIVER ATTEMPTED TO MAKE LEFT HAND TURN IN FRONT OF A MINIVAN. THE DRIVER INDICATED THAT THE TRUCK WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND CAUSED A HEAD-ON COLLISION AND KILLED THE DRIVER OF THE MINIVAN. LATER, THE TRUCK WAS FOUND TO HAVE A FAULTY ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSEMBLY KIT.

NAR 02/28/2003 MR THE CONSUMER EXPERIENCED WITH THE GEARS GOING OUT SHIFT. *CB

AIR BAGS FAILED TO GO OFF DURING ROLL OVER ACCIDENT FOR FORD F250 (2001 CREW CAB 4DR)

MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A FRONT WHEEL BEARING MALFUNCTION WHICH JUST ABOUT RESULTED IN A POTENTIAL CRASH IF I HAD BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY AT THE TIME. LUCKILY I HAD STOPPED FOR GAS. I WAS TOLD BY FORD THERE WAS NO RECALL AND THEY WERE UNAWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE INDEPENDENT SHOP THAT FIXED THE PART SAID IT WAS SEALED AND WAS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT. I CALLED FORD BACK TO REPORT IT AND THEY INSIST THERE IN NO PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH I HAVE 5 FRIENDS WHO HAVE EXPEREINCE THE EXACT PROBLEM IN THEIR F250 TRUCKS. I ALSO REFERRED FORD TO A WEBSITE CHAT THAT INDICATED OVER 200 OF THE SAME PROBLEM ALL AT DIFFERENT POINTS OF THE OWNERSHIP (10K, 25K, 50K MILES) SOME UNDER WARRANTY SOME NOT. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE ENOUGH FOR FORD TO TAKE OWNERSHIP. THEY REFUSED TO PAY FOR MY REPAIRS AS WELL AS LOOK INTO THE MATTER. THEY CONTINUE TO PUT THIS PART ON THE TRUCKS KNOWING THEY ARE DEFECTIVE AND CANNONT FUNCTION ONT HE SUPERDUTY TRUCK FRONT ENDS. I HAVE ALSO SPOKEN WITH DIFFERENT FORD MECHANICS WHO ADMIT IT IS A "KNOWN PROBLEM" AND THEY KEEP THE PART IN STOCK BECAUSE THEY REPLACE THEM SO MUCH. THE WORD FROM FORD ABOVE IS "IF IT IS IN WARRANTY FIX IT, IF IT IS OUT CHARGE, AND IF THEY COMPLAIN COMPENSATE" WHEN ASKED ABOUT POTENTIAL ACCIDENT IT WAS SAID "THEY WOULD DEAL WITH IT AS THEY ARISE". I THINK THIS NEED TO BE LOOKED INTO. I AM ONLY OUT $500 BUT SOMEONE ELSE MAY BE OUT ALOT MORE IF THAT FRONT END LOCKS UP GOING 70 DOWN A HIGHWAY.

MY TRUCK'S HYDRAULIC CLUTCH SYSTEM HAS FAILED TWICE NOW. BOTH OF THESE TIMES IT PREVENTED ME FROM DISENGAGING THE MOTOR AND THE BRAKES WOULD NOT STOP THE TRUCK. I WAS ALMOST IN AN ACCIDENT AS A RESULT OF THIS BOTH TIMES. THE DEALERSHIP HAS REPAIRED MY VEHICLE BOTH TIMES AT NO COST, BUT MY CONCERN IS THAT IF THIS CAUSES ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT AND KILL SOMEONE, MYSELF INCLUDED, WHO THEN WILL BE RESPONSIBLE? IN MY OPINION THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE DEFECT RENDERS THE TRUCK UNSTOPPABLE. THE FIRST OCCURANCE, THE TRUCK ONLY HAD 1200 MILES ON IT. THE SECOND ONE WAS JUST RECENTLY AT 20,900 MILES. I'VE ONLY HAD THE TRUCK APPROXIMATELY TWENTY MONTHS. THAT IS RIDICULOUS.

WHEN BRAKING HARD THE STEERING LOCKS UP. THIS HAS HAPPENED 2 TIMES AND FORD SAYS IT IS NORMAL. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I ALMOST HIT 2 VEHICLES BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM! DT

CONSUMER IS CONCERNED ABOUT THE DESIGN OF REAR SEATS, THEY0 DO NOT HAVE HEADRESTS, IN THE EVENT OF A REAR END CRASH THE PASSENGER?S HEAD WOULD GO THROUGH THE WINDOW. *YD

THE CONSUMER STATED THAT THE PASSENGERS REAR SEAT DOES HAVE HEADREST. IT WILL BE UNSAFE FOR REAR SEAT PASSENGERS IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURS. *YD

CONSUMER WAS TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY, AND THERE WAS TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAKING FROM UNDER VEHICLE. ALSO THERE WAS A FIRE UNDER HOOD, IN WHICH CONSUMER BELIEVES STARTED WITH THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS PRIOR. *AK CONSUMER HAD PROBLEMS WITH TRANSMISSION, THE FIRST DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, CONSUMER DECIDED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER DEALER FOR THE SECOND OPINION, WHILE ON HIS WAY TO THE DEALER, VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE.*YD
